What makes William J Bryan speech so powerful?

History
1 answer:
____ [38]3 years ago
5 0
Bryan was the last of the Great Political Orators in some ways. He could speak at great length on any topic, using powerful imagery, often of a religious nature, to audiences raised on such language and imagery.

Unfortunately, the telegraph already was encouraging economy of language, and the radio would make long speeches less useful than shorter ones which reached the point quickly. People in churches no longer spent hours listening to a single sermon, and those who followed the earsteps of Abraham Lincoln learned that eloquence was not a matter of length, but of substance.

The “Cross of Gold” speech which he thought would propel him to the Presidency would not work today.

The only orators today who speak interminably tend to be dictatorial in nature, in love with their own voice, and whose followers dote on every word, no matter how repetitious. Bryan was leagues above that, but someone who seeks his skill will learn why society has passed the skills of the long-sermoned preacher by.

**SHOULD BLACK HISTORY BE TAUGHT ALL YEAR?**
Ugo [173]

Answer:

Black history should be taught all year because the school system normally just teaches about black history, during black history month. Black history month happens every year in February. This month takes back on everything that has happened to people of the African american race. This month shows as a way of remembering important people and events in the history of the African diaspora.

 The school system should teach about black history all year. Teaching about black history to children, and teenagers, will open their minds more about what has happened to the African american race throughout history. The first black history month started in 1976, by president Gerald Ford. He started this to show and tell people what happened to Black people. On that day President Ford said "honor the too-often neglected accomplishments of Black Americans in every area of endeavor throughout our history." He wanted people to be more open minded about what has happened to the African american race. This is why we need the school systems to teach about black history all year, so we can help expand awarness of what has happened in history.
